This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Simply the BEST !

Attorney Mike Dwyer handled my DUI case out of Middletown in 2021. Mikes extraordinary ability to put his clients at ease with his calm demeanor is unmatched, and his knowledge and experience of the judicial system is comforting. I cannot make a higher recommendation than Attorney Mike Dwyer for anyo...ne in need of services regarding the law. He is a man who comes across as someone who will roll up his sleeves and fight hard for you, and I will take that any day off the week! You cannot go wrong. Louis Agli.

Amazing lawyer

Attorney Michael Dwyer represented me in a personal injury matter and did an amazing job for me. He explained the process of my claim. Attorney Dwyer returned my calls and kept me very informed. I believe he is a great lawyer and would highly recommend him. My experience was excellent.
